Tweaking A Pattern

I decided to try something different with the Swiffer cover and eliminated the tabs and buttons. This one went very quickly and I’m pleased with the result.

I did nine repeats instead of seven and added three rows of garter stitch before binding off. I made ties of twisted yarn and just snugged cover up over the Swiffer and I’m good to go.

Now that I’ve perfected my pattern adjustments I’ll go back to knitting dishcloths for a couple of days and then make a couple of these to go with the dishcloths I’m making for Audrey’s kitchen.

Guess I needed a break from knitting socks but I’ve still got a lot of sock knitting to do. Knitting is my go-to for when I’m not feeling all that great. The detox is going well but I’m definitely feeling some fatigue and not up to much around the house. I need to do a couple of loads of laundry so I don’t get behind but I can manage that with no problems. I don’t need much in the way of groceries and Brad can pick those up for me later.

I would like to read a couple of more chapters in “American Marxism” and then decide what to read when I finish it. I’ve got several good books downloaded on my Kindle that I haven’t read and several that I will read again. I think I’m in the mood for another dose of Mitch Rapp…
